Peripheral operating requirements and behaviors
6.8.3 SPI switching specifications
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) provides a synchronous serial bus with master and
slave operations. Many of the transfer attributes are programmable. The following tables
provide timing characteristics for classic SPI timing modes. See the SPI chapter of the
chip's Reference Manual for information about the modified transfer formats used for
communicating with slower peripheral devices.
All timing is shown with respect to 20% VDD and 80% VDD thresholds, unless noted, as
well as input signal transitions of 3 ns and a 30 pF maximum load on all SPI pins.

1. For SPI0 fperiph is the bus clock (fBUS). For SPI1 fperiph is the system clock (fSYS).
2. tperiph = 1/fperiph
